Hi Matthew,

We actually discussed exactly this when we first published the book,
but it was felt that we would interfere too much with the story if
we'd invent a new random number check, since we don't know how hard it
should be and if there would be anything giving a bonus to it, etc.
But thanks for the suggestion!
